HID conversion question
I am upgrading from stock halogen to the USR depot headlights.
In order to use HID lights (for the low beams), do I need to buy a conversion kit? Or will the HIDs be plug and play with the USR headlights? If I need a conversion kit, what wattage ballast do I need? 35W or 50W? https://www.amazon.com/Morimoto-Elit...10&sr=8-7&th=1 Also, will I need to do any coding? |

You will need coding. You can get a wifi/bluetooth OBD II adapter and purchase Bimmercode. If the headlights do not have bulbs/ballasts you will need to get a 35 watt kit.
